I understand that. But my point is, you can't buy a used car and expect it to be perfect.

I know it sounds harsh but if you don't do the research, buy a warranty or brand new. It's hard for me to sympathize.

The fact that the CSC is such a well known issue and he still bought the car, he should be ready for the possible need of replacement.

I'm sure they dealer even stated "No Warranty". Expecting the dealership to fix it when it's clearly stated "No Warranty" is ridiculous.

If you buy a used car without doing your due diligence, that's on you. Live with it and move on.

Just irks me when people buy used and play the poor me card when the car isn't perfect.

there are plenty of people who bought these cars brand new and within a couple thousand miles the CSC goes out. i guess buying a used car nothing should work, just buy a new car

First off this isn't a "poor me statement." I never stated anything about the dealer mentioning a warranty. I had bought the car and on the SECOND day of owning it the clutch stuck to the floor. I don't know what world you are in but I don't expect any vehicle with 40k miles being sold from a car dealership to have serious issues like this right off the lot. I looked into this issue before buying the car assumed it would eventually happen but not this soon. I have plenty of vehicles new and used but never had a issue right off the lot. There was no way to tell until I drove it. I didn't expect the car to be perfect but I also didn't expect it to be immobile in two friggin days. There is a warranty on used cars in my state sold by a dealer. My car had a warranty, and was "fixed" until it happened again. My original question with this thread was if it was the issue was not fixed correctly, how I should proceed.

Thank you, yes they've helped me before. Great customer service. I just wanted it to last me a few months. I'll probably just bite the bullet if it happens again and start my new racing build. I didn't even check the fluids until it happened, I originally popped the hood and everything was clean so I assumed car was well taken care of... Stupid me haha
